Baldur's Gate Enhanced Edition Launches Today!

I'm playing through this now, and I gotta say, they managed to make a game worse than what is available for free. The original game with mods does the same thing they've done and there is much more content available. The Black Pits plays like some kind of free demo, nothing but fight after fight after fight. As much as I love the BG series, BGEE is not worth the time or money imo.

Are you excited for BG2EE?

Not in the slightest. For the average gamer, it's probably great, but for someone who's used to installing mods - and there are a ton of them available for BG2, including a high res widescreen mod - I don't think it has much to offer. A few new npcs, and I found the ones in BGEE about as boring as those offered in 3rd party mods, and a sequel to that horrible Black Pits they did for BGEE, ug. I'll stick with my original edition modded to taste.

I AM, however, interested in seeing any new games they might do using the infinity engine.
